I could imagine that certain types of bots, tools

benefit if handled and developed with support from a chapter.
For instance,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Citation_bot
is used widely but cannot be maintained by its original author.
It is currently being ported to Labs (
https://github.com/wrought/citation-bot )
to restore functionality, but due to ongoing developments in other
areas (e.g. citation templates), adaptations are necessary on an
ongoing basis. Who should do that? And what about feature requests?
Yes! From a user perspective, that's definitely an area of need, and a
great example too. Personal note: I LOVE Citation Bot, and I hope it comes
back soon!
So chapters can offer to help porting tools like this to Labs and
ongoing maintenance of these tools?
Is there a list of such tools that have been identified as needing paid support?
